I showed you the front entrance of Casa Loma last week and thought I would give you an idea as to why you never see pics from the other side. Casa Loma sits at the top of a steep hill (110 steps to the top) that runs up from Davenport Rd and is covered in trees and gardens. In summer you can barely see the Casa but this winter pic gives us a little peek of it looking down over the middle of the city!
I'm still pre-posting but hope to be back to normal this week.
This trio of large fir trees looked so lovely the morning after a snow storm! Several people had stopped to look at them as I was taking this pic.
There is something about blue trim looking so wonderful in the snow and I thought that this Annex home looked so pretty with the snow-laden tree beside it. Not that I would want to be sitting out on that great porch in this weather!
This has to be one of the most successful conversions - this one was an elementary school in the Annex until a few years ago when it was developed and changed into condos. Everything seems to work so well from a design perspective and the snow is an added bonus!
This has always been one of my favourite homes in the Annex neighbourhood of the city and I think it looks especially elegant with its snowy accessories!
I have shown you this entrance to Casa Loma with flowers out front but I think it looks just as lovely after a pretty snow storm!
Thanks everyone for your well wishes for my mum - she is improving!
Happy New Year everyone and I hope it is going to be a good one for us all!
I am helping out my mum who has come down with a bad flu and so I haven't been able to visit everyone and I'm not sure when I will be finding the time but I will try to keep on posting a couple days in advance! I'll be visiting soon!
